Farming SSP for warring faction tokens is your best bet then.

You realize there's a ton of variables within the aerodrome that'll make it next to impossible to bot it right? What you're saying right now is coming from baseless assumptions because the dungeons gives a ton of xp. You don't realize how much damage you take from mobs in there or how much hp they have at stage 51-61. A bot would get killed by a group of mobs before they even die. Even if you could bot AD, it would be at a stage with an irrelevant amount of xp to gain and with the same variables that can make botting in there unreliable. You have no idea how bots work if you're making these dumb posts about every single dungeon that gives you high xp without contextualizing what has to be done to even get it and what the difficulty is of farming xp.

I got a chance to look at the videos and it really does seem like you're the only one even doing anything in there given that the framerate with everyone fighting koldrak is usually low and you were constantly around 40+ fps. I'm not exactly sure if you're able to reenter a different koldrak after exiting an incomplete one. Since you do koldraks from alts given what you said already, then if you see the dragon's health higher than 75-80% after the first tail knockback, I'd advise to leave the dragon and go on another alt if you can since the average health range of the dragon on the first pushback is usually around 35-65% hp. That's all I can really tell you, but it does suck. I had to leave a koldrak on my 2.3k bd alt as well a few days ago and I decided to do dragon on another alt as a result since I realized the damage was either too low or too many people afk'ing.

I only see maybe 1-2 afk'ers in Koldrak and 99% of the time they're someone that does no damage. Literally no different than being a low dps that never picks up ice shards to increase the whole lobby's dps instead of selfishly trying to get a premium chest or last hit. Almost every koldrak I do on my main, I never see the ice buff bars fill up at all because low dps alts never pick them up. Whereas on my alts, I'm always trying to pick 2 full stacks of ice shards per tail pushback because I know someone has higher damage than me and can get the dps'ing job done faster. As for the OP of this thread, I say for you to watch your words and just make sure you're not one of those 2-3m dps alts that never pick up ice shards and complain about koldrak runs taking 4-6 minutes to complete.

That's called an anti-cheat having a heartbeat sir

Character slots are easy to get. You can just do ladders for hm coins and save those for getting character slots.

I don't want to do this in the forums, but it seems like the GMs are incapable of handling tickets of players mass reporting players that are multi-clienting griefing in the battlegrounds. So how come every time someone brings up issues in the forum that get reported to support just get turned away when support doesn't even do anything with the reports they get? There's a certain player that is constantly multi-clienting his characters in the battlegrounds and manipulating the matches to make sure no one gets credit or rank up if they win or if they lose and the match still counts as using up a placement match for players that are under placement. He's doing this BOTH IN NA & EU to make it worse, so this issue is affecting everyone that's trying to do Battlegrounds matches especially Nova core when ques for that map is already long and to spend an extra 15 minutes on top of the que times to get this guy doing that makes it so that no one wants to que under such disgraceful behavior. This is breaking term #23 in the Terms and Conditions you guys have highlighted on your website.

That's only to lfp into a dungeon party which is almost unheard of since practically all of the recruiting gets done by joining a party that gets posted in the dungeon lobby, not lfp'ing into one in the dungeon lobby. With how dungeon recruiting works in NA and has been working for awhile, then not being to lfp into a dungeon will only be an issue if you happen to want to join an in-progress party. I agree that they have to rework lower gear progression since they actually made it harder to upgrade your weapon in certain ways despite being able to get to gc3 fairly easily if you do Koldrak and Mushin Tower Floor 7 everyday to eventually get you storm dragon 9 weapon and get gc3 from there with one upgrade.

We would like to see wintrading go away as well and for reports to actually be taken seriously as well especially if they're mass reports. As much as they're starting to try to tackle the issue of cheating, now the same treatment needs to be given to wintrading. If they can't do anything about that then you'd might as well not even have an anti-cheat if double standards for moderation is still going to exist. There's even a specific player that has been reported on for griefing games in the battlegrounds as well on multiple account/character in one given match and he does it in both the NA and EU servers. If anything, if this public stunt can't even be permabanned then the GMs shouldn't even bother with cracking down on xp farm botting with that kind of hypocrisy.

UE4 may have brought some hype, but we still have issues that need to be addressed one of them being how bad the servers still are. Having random ping spikes at the worst time can lead to unnecessary wipes and lots of wasted time for no reason and this happens CONSTANTLY!. Any other MMO doesn't have issues with ping spikes compared to BNS. Let's not forget that disconnects also happen frequently upon changing characters! I don't know if NCWest is just gonna milk the hype or actually continue to actually improve upon the issues we keep addressing. I'd rather it be the latter, despite their history being that they follow the former!

We're aware of that, but you only get 1 per month of farming hard mode and most players don't even have alts that can readily farm Spectral Shrine compared to Koldrak and a ton of players still don't have the gear or know-how to do hardmode. It'll be 9 months by the time you get a glided penta. You're time-gated by being able to only get 3 hard mode dynamics in a day. So farming Spectral Shrine barely solves that issue.

Since the hard mode dungeons drop octagonal obsidians and garnets at a low chance, then I'd say to at least bump the solar energy obsidian up to a hexagonal obsidian. Even with 6-7 months of farming solar energies, then it's only enough to get one glided square obsidan when the highest obtainable obsidian is a glided hexa. If they were willing to buff Koldrak for Garnet Farming by that much, then at least buff obsidians or leave the previous available farming methods alone.

Nightfall Sanctuary drops Silver Scales too and the whole raid is pluggable. It's just boss 3 that everyone need to be wary of and share damage with people that get aerial'd by the mech phase or aerial'd players will keep dying. Most raids drop 3-4 of their respective tiered scales per boss. Right now Onyx Scales got shafted since they removed them from dungeons not in the F8 rotation for who knows what reason.

You can get martial tokens from the Koldrak, "The Final Training" (Mushin Tower Floor 7 Quest), and Mid Bummer's Night Dream Quest in Moon Refuge. If you plan on farming martial tokens for awhile, I'd suggest getting the resets for them in the Hongmoon Store (F10) everyday before daily specials reset at 8:00 PM EST.

The aggro for bosses in Soulstone Plains is bugged. There's players that have hardly contributed any damage to a boss fight that are taking aggro. I've been using War Cry to increase my threat, but I lose aggro to only one attack that a ranged player uses. I would suggest that the devs take a look at this if possible.

I've actually had that happen to me when I was duo'ing SK with a friend of mine on my BD. After killing the phase adds, the boss ends up using the cross aoe skill and I couldn't press anything at all because all of my skills were grayed out and I didn't even get cc'd, pulled or anything. Me and my friend ended up dying because of that and he confirmed that he couldn't use any skills as well at that instance. I couldn't even use my bubble because of that, so I can confirm this happens in raids too.
